Lock Ridge Furnace Museum — Attraction in Alburtis

I visited the Lock Ridge Furnace Museum for the first time on Wednesday June 12, 2019 after discovering it that morning on Google Maps. Thank you Google Maps! I had never even heard of it before that day. There must be many more gems in the Lehigh Valley that I am not aware of. Well anyway, the park did not disappoint. The museum itself was closed as well as the public restroom building. I think they are open on the weekends. I’ll have to make a point to return during business house. Bring your camera because there’s lot to see. It’s a mini Stonehenge right in the middle of Alburtis Pennsylvania. The remains of this old foundry make for interesting photographic subjects. Note the unique designs on the main building. The grounds are clean and well kept. There was a maintenance crew working on pipes while I was there. The paths are paved which is nice so you don’t have to track mud back into your car. I don’t have a dog but there was a person walking theirs and he did a clean up after his dog. I saw a small garden, not colorful, but very nice. Parking is free in their small lot and it is handicap-accessible. The sound from the waterfalls along the pathway was quite peaceful. This visit to the Lock Ridge park was very enjoyable and I would visit again when...

There is also a small bit of an old railroad section there you can see with a flatbed on it. Some of the ruins from the old furnaces are still there which are great for pictures. The museum itself is very nice as well make sure to go in and learn some history about the local area and the old...

I've done a number of weddings here as the owner of An Affair to Remember by Sharon, and have had many great experiences including my own wedding!

You can either dress it up or leave it natural and dealing with Lehigh County is pretty easy. I just wish I hadn't lived in another County because the cost was more expensive.

The only downside to weddings is that you must have a battery-operated sound system or generator (a little noisy) as there is no electrical service. Otherwise, I would definitely refer this place to anyone for a...
